This one seems to be grand, linking the IPs of various soulmates and the real monsters experienced by the Warrens, but in fact this is where the failure lies. Too much information and too many characterized horror images make The perception of the movie as a horror movie has dropped significantly.
Horror comes from the unknown, but when these horror images are stereotyped into fixed characters, it is equivalent to taking the initiative to put down the unknown weapon and transform the film into a full-character gathering carnival like the Avengers. In fact, in a sense, seeing so many images that were originally (or could be) the protagonists of my own horror movie appeared on the same screen, it was quite an addictive feeling. Sadly, that's not how a horror movie should feel. Their character setting is greater than the unknown fear, which is actually very deadly for horror films. It's like Freddy can scare people half to death when he first appeared, but after watching a few more movies, you not only start to not be afraid of him, you even think he is kind of handsome. Including Annabelle itself, as an IP that has become a brand, it has long lost its original sense of horror. This work even intentionally adds some settings that did not exist before (such as the lighthouse of the ghosts and the like)
On the other hand, this film also loses the usual characteristics of The Conjuring and the Annabelle series, and falls into the cliché of ordinary horror films: the biggest feature of the Conjuring and the Annabelle series is the protagonist (or the victim, because sometimes Warren The couple is the protagonist) there should be no murder, because the core idea of this series is that those evil things have no source of malice for us, they attack you for no reason, not because you accidentally touch what. But in this one, this key point has also been abandoned, and the film has returned to the common routine of committing death and then having an accident.
But fortunately, this film has not completely reduced to the kind of low-level horror film that relies entirely on JS to bluff people. It still inherits the core idea of the Soul Conjuring universe: the warmth of emotion transmitted between people, and belief can give The power of man. It's just that this one is far better than the previous ones. Haruka remembers that when watching The Conjuring 2, Mr. Warren sang with the victims when the atmosphere of the film was at its lowest ebb. What a shock to the soul... In this article, this kind of taste is vaguely preserved, but it is difficult to truly found it.
